Description of exercise The static diagonal crunch w/ball exercise is a core strengthening movement that targets the abdominal muscles. It involves lying on your back with your knees bent and holding a stability ball between your hands. From this position, you will perform a crunch by lifting your upper body off the ground and rotating to one side while keeping the ball extended in front of you. This movement engages your obliques, rectus abdominis, and transverse abdominis muscles. The added challenge of holding the stability ball increases the resistance and stability required to perform the exercise, making it an effective way to improve core strength and stability. It can be modified for different fitness levels by adjusting the weight of the ball or the range of motion.
